"Wind energy makes up a small fraction of electric generation in this country, but the rising price of natural gas has made wind look like a bargain; in some cases, it is cheaper to build a wind turbine and let existing natural gas generators stand idle. Giant, modern wind farms like the New Mexico Wind Energy Center...may become more common if prices continue to rise." (NEW YORK TIMES) This article examines the advantages and disadvantages of wind-generated electricity.
